Explanation of 05:43 to 5:43 AM conversion
To convert 24-hour time (also known as Military Time) 05:43 to 12-hour time we need to do a few simple steps.
- If the hour of our 24-hour time is greater than 12, we subtract 12 from it.
- If the hour is less than or equal to 12, we just leave it as it is.
- Special case: 0 becomes 12 in 12-hour format.
- If the hour is greater than or equal to 12, the time is PM, otherwise it's AM.
In our case the hour 5 is not greater than 12, so we just keep it untouched:
5
The hour part of our 24-hour time (5 ) is less than 12, so it's
AM (latin Ante Meridiem - Before Midday) time
After we got the number of hours and found out the right AM/PM postfix we just need to add minutes to it. When converting 24-hour time to 12-hour time, minutes remain unchanged (:43). Finally, let's put it all together:
5:43 AM
